Nandan joined Trivers in 2020 after spending the two previous summers with the firm as an intern. His passion for design began at an early age in his native Central India while growing up on farms. While visiting old forts and palaces not far away, he was enthralled by the elaborately precise design and construction of the forts with their stately arches. He completed his Master of Architecture and Master of Construction Management degrees at Washington University in May 2020. His final degree project focused on harnessing parking for better adaptability, and fostering co-working space for multiple professions bolstering a stronger connection within the Cortex community and out towards the city at large. His work on Brick House with CollectiveProject was recently featured on ArchDaily.

“We get that lines sketched on paper have a real impact in the world, so we think about consequence a lot. It’s more than the tangible building. It’s what the project does for the people we’re working for. It’s the ability for them to achieve their vision.”

“If you line up the buildings Trivers has executed, they’re all very different in a positive way. All our projects are rooted in ideas and context. It’s very apparent that we’re thinking about a specific project, for a specific client, in a specific location.”

“We’re passionate about design and practice. Our experience is that great design comes from being able to create great relationships among people from diverse skillsets and backgrounds.”
